On October 25, SACKVILLE left her summer berth on the Halfax waterfront in front of the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, and headed back to HMC Dockyard. The Dockyard is better protected from the weather, and there are more eyes to look after her there during winter storms. I rode along for the short voyage, termed a "cold move" because she was aided by tugs and didn't move under her own power.

SACKVILLE should move back to her summer berth in June 2018.
